Named Entity Recognition (NER) is a fun-damental task in Natural Language Process-ing (NLP), particularly in the analysis of Chi-nese historical texts. In this work, we pro-pose an innovative NER model based on Gu-jiRoBERTa, incorporating Conditional Ran-dom Fields (CRF) and Long Short Term Mem-ory Network(LSTM) to enhance sequence la-beling performance. Our model is evaluated on three datasets from the EvaHan2025 competi-tion, demonstrating superior performance over the baseline model, SikuRoBERTa-BiLSTM-CRF. The proposed approach effectively cap-tures contextual dependencies and improves entity boundary recognition. Experimental re-sults show that our method achieves consistent improvements across almost all evaluation met-rics, highlighting its robustness and effective-ness in handling ancient Chinese texts.
